Pocic at center, part of trouble for BH?

Pocic is 6'7" and gets pushed back, a lot.

Does this create a problem for BH? He has a ton of high misses.

In no way am I defending BH, just want to know why, and if so why does Cam keep him in pocket

Pocic is solid but I can't help but wonder if at 6'7" and the kind of feet he has if he would be an excellent left tackle protecting the blind side of Harris. He is a very athletic guy. Seems to me that a kid with Alexander's size and build if he would not have been better off at guard. Pocic at left tackle and Alexander at guard. But it's too late for that in 2015.

He is solid, one more game and he's gone however.

He has done a poor job recently.

He is pushed back into the pocket fairly consistently.

Level of competition went up, he started struggling. He was better at guard last year.

The entire O-line struggled in the last 3-4 games. Its amazing to me how good they looked in the beginning of the season and how bad they ended the year. Florida has a solid D-line, better than Arkansas and our O-line pushed them around for the majority of that game so I dont think their struggling was solely due to the level of competition. Not sure what all went into their collapse but it was pretty epic?

Pocic is more naturally suited for a tackle position at 6'7". He's too tall for center Ideally you want someone who is about 6'2" of 6'3" with a lower center of gravity so as to get under shorter DT's and NG's. That being said, he did a very good job this year until he got to the "bigger" competition.

It could also be that he was the smartest guy on the line and better able to call out blocking assignments.

He's playing out of position. He'll be a great tackle in the NFL

Look back last year with Pocic at guard, he did a great job. Made initial block and was down field blocking at second level.

Throws high because too much heat on ball, when your off slightly and you have that much heat it either goes in the dirt at their feet or over their head
